Trump-backed GOP Michigan governor candidate says she disagrees with DeVos on Jan. 6
Michigan gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon said Sunday that she disagrees with former education secretary Betsy DeVos, whose family has backed Dixon’s campaign, about the role former president Trump played in the Jan. 6, 2021, attacks on the U.S. Capitol.
“The secretary knows that she and I differ on that subject. I want to make sure that political speech is always protected because that could open a can of worms for anybody on both sides of the party. But the secretary knows that I disagree with her on that point,” Dixon told Fox News Sunday host Bret Baier.
DeVos resigned from the Trump administration the day after the Jan. 6 riots, citing Trump’s involvement.
“There’s no mistaking the impact your rhetoric had on the situation, and it is the inflection point for me,” DeVos wrote in her resignation letter, read aloud to the Jan. 6 committee on June 28, 2022.
